I thought I had ordered the more open model of the SS50C/ COMBI with a larger gap than 16mm. My mistake but I request an exchange please. Could you mail a return postage note,by return please.

Thank you for contacting us regarding your order. Normally any returns are dealt with us directly either over the phone or through email. This is so we can deal with them as soon as possible and prevent any further delay. The reviews system is monitored but not on a daily basis. I am so pleased we were able to get in touch with you and arrange to exchange the padlock for you. You will now have the open shackle version which better suits your requirements. Thank you.

One of the combination padlocks I can’t get to work. I am unable to lift the shackle to lift up fully in order to set the combination code. The second padlock is perfectly fine ! Andrew Wood l.

Thank you for leaving a review, as we were not aware you had an issue with one of your small combination padlocks. I am very sorry to hear this as we take any faulty padlock issues seriously and look to resolve any that are brought to our attention. Our team would have been happy to take your call to talk through any issues and replace a padlock if it could not have been resolved. Although we were not able to have that discussion, I have arranged for a replacement to be posted to you.

The service received is excellent and the product is very good indeed. We have a technical issue which we have reported separately on the return note.

First class service, fast delivery, reasonable product for price. Not the companies fault but of the two padlocks supplied, one worked perfectly, the other, the release spring and the accuracy of the combination dials makes it a bit of a struggle to operate the lock. Haven't returned them as they do work.

Very slick website and easy ordering process with next day delivery advertised but subsequently I have found that lead in time is between 5 to 7 working days. This is ok as i ordered a specialist item - but a bit more clarity at an earlier stage would have been appreciated. I placed the order a week and so I am unable to comment on delivery time or product quality.

Padlocks appear good quality but next day delivery was paid for. They were ordered Saturday and arrived Wednesday!

Good morning, Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. They are very important to helping us improve our service levels. Our office and warehouse are not open of a weekend so the website does state that orders placed after 2pm on a Friday afternoon will not be dispatched until Monday - which is the case here. Unfortunately, the standard set by our competitors who do not pay living wage or UK tax has set a bar which we, as a small firm with strong family values, are unable to adhere to, and to be frank, I don't think it's right that those standards have been set. From checking the DPD tracking on your order, I can see that there was a request for an address change from you on the Monday evening, I am not sure of the circumstances or delivery time consequences but I shall refund you 50% of your delivery charge now. Many thanks, Dan Willoughby Operations Director dan@padlocks.co.uk

Good morning, Many thanks for your order and taking the time to leave a review. I'm very sorry about the picking error, we're all human here and unfortunately mistakes do happen so you received a 72/40 red instead of a 74/40 red. The full refund was credited on 7th October. If you'd be willing to give us another chance, please contact me directly on dan@padlocks.co.uk and I'll offer additional level of discount. Really sorry for any inconvenience caused, Dan Willoughby Operations Director

Having read reviews and looked at the website we thought this was clearly the best place to buy a padlock which needed to be rust proof as we live by the sea. The padlock arrived promptly. It is really difficult the move the numbers. I think anyone with arthritis would really struggle.

The service was excellent, but the padlock provided was of very poor quality. Drum and pins were cheaply manufactured and very unsecure

Thank you for your comments. It is important to hear what our customers think of our products. I am really sorry to hear that the padlock did not meet your expectations. This particular padlock was from our budget range but I would still expect it to meet our quality standards. I am happy for you to return the padlock to us for a full refund. If you wish to contact us then we would be happy to discuss this further.

Rather expensive, appeared there would be 3, but only one arrived. Is that right? Lock seemed fairly strong.

Unfortunately the key supplied didn’t work with the padlock. Once informed the company responded quickly.

The company were good but unfortunately the courier company tasked with delivery (DPD) were next to useless. They left a calling card which made no sense and the said they would investigate. They didn’t. The lock arrived 10 days after purchase. However, Nothing but padlocks did chase this with dpd. A helpful man called Dan called to apologise and look into the case. I’ve received my lock but heard no more from dad or Dan. As good as Dan was I doubt I’d use this company again, Tom

Padlocks and delivery fine but ridiculous packaging. Needed heavy scissors to cut through very thick heavy plastic. Real risk of injury attempting to open.

Good morning, Thank you for taking the time to write a review, all of them, whether positive or negative, help us learn and improve on the service we provide. I agree with you wholeheartedly about these 'blister' packs in general but many of the manufacturers need to produce in this format for display purposes in retail outlets. Some of the products come shrinkwrapped to a piece of cardboard still suitable for hanging on a retail display unit but I think they must cost more than the thick plastic as they are less common. I will feedback your comments to the manufacturer in the hope that they will take on board some social and environmental responsibility and amend their packaging accordingly. Thanks for your order and if you need any more from us, if you want to drop me a line in advance, we'll remove the padlocks from any such packaging prior to despatch. Kind regards, Dan WIlloughby Operations Director dan@padlocks.co.uk

Miranda was great but DPD are totally useless. I made two orders on consecutive days. DPD managed to take my address that was on the order and change it . I had no alternative but to then use the " deliver to neighbour " option but that didn't work. driver had no info to deliver to me, refused to hand over the parcel when my son chased him to the wrong address despite producing evidence that our surname was who ordered the products, the stood adjacent to a neighbour who signed for it and handed it to my son in front of the driver. On the second delivery had to sign write a 4 foot sq board and point to my property as the same address problem happened again.I cannot buy from you again as it is too complicated having deliveries from DPD. Sorry to Miranda who is great.

Disappointed in my marine combination padlock. It is almost impossible to turn the dials, there is nothing to grip, your finger just slides over the dials.

I used nothing but padlocks for the first time due to the delivery time offered as I needed to secure a unit very quickly. The delivery was delayed twice & eventually arrived a week later than planned. The lock then had to be replaced but the keys that were sent with it were the wrong size. The goods all came from an external source & NBP did try to resolve the problems for me as quickly as they could.

padlock arrived - thank you - only slightly disappointing thing is that the number pads are very small which will make it hard to use in the winter when it is dark
